Table 3.

Critical care beds per capita. The sum of the number of critical care beds was divided by the sum of all hospital beds within each country, and multiplied by 100, to obtain the average ratio of critical care beds to hospital beds in each country. This ratio was then multiplied by Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development data on hospital beds per capita to obtain the per capita critical care bed numbers, rescaled to per 100 000 population
